This template creates a link to a list of map sources. It is the same as [[Template:coor]] but uses a UK [[British national grid reference system|Ordnance Survey grid reference]] as the coordinates.

=== Warning ===
This is an experimental facility. By all means use it, but to avoid problems when things change:
* definitely do not create any links to the external URL which this template calls
* do not use this template directly in any article
* instead use one of the templates which use this one. Or create a new template.

== Usage ==
Use:
:'''<nowiki>{{oscoor|cc|tt}}</nowiki>'''

Where:
* '''cc''' is the grid reference in one of the formats listed below followed, optionally, by any [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Geographical_coordinates#Parameters|additional parameters]]. For example: TQ123456_region:GB_scale:25000
* '''tt''' is the text to appear in the link.

Grid reference formats - letters are not case-sensitive:
{| cellspacing=0 border=1 cellpadding=2
|-
|   || [[British national grid reference system|Great Britain]]
|-
| 888_999 || Two decimal numbers - eastings then northings in metres separated by an underscore (for consistency with <nowiki>{{</nowiki>coor}}) Eg.: {{oscoor|439668_1175316_region:GB|439668_1175316}}
|-
| SE || rowspan=5 | Standard grid references. In each of these cases, the actual coordinates passed to the map sources page will be the centre of the square that the grid ref defines
|-
| SE16
|-
| SE1267
|-
| SE123678
|-
| SE12346789
|-
| SE1234567890 || Full "ten figure" grid reference
|-
|
|-
|   || [[Irish national grid reference system|Ireland]] - proposed - not yet implemented
|-
| i888_999 || Letter 'i' followed by two decimal numbers - eastings then northings in metres separated by an underscore
|-
| R || rowspan=5 | Standard grid references. In each of these cases, the actual coordinates passed to the map sources page will be the centre of the square that the grid ref defines
|-
| R16
|-
| R1267
|-
| R123678
|-
| R12346789
|-
| R1234567890 || Full "ten figure" grid reference
|}
